Before you do anything else, you must decide on a party. A good party is a
balanced party in this game. You'll want someone who is a powerful attacker,
someone to heal your party, someone who can deal good magic damage, and
someone who can help out your party in another way. For this reason I
recommend a Warrior, White Mage, Black Mage and then another character of your
choice. For me it was a Monk but another Warrior might be a good bet.

+-- (______) ORNELIA ------------------------------------------------ 1.01 --+
Welcome to "Final Fantasy," the game that started it all. The journey of four
warriors of light to stop some evil force! Right away you're placed on
the world map with little to no idea of what to do. Begin by entering the
town beside you, this is the town of Cornelia. In Cornelia there are many
shops you can visit and peruse, a weapons shop to upgrade all of your weapons,
an armor shop to upgrade your armor and an items shop to pick up some items.
Thjere are also two magic shops, black magic and white magic. They each have
four spells for sale but Black Mages and White Mages can only carry three
spells per magic level. I would recommend Fire, Sleep and Thunder for the
Black Mage, and Cure, Dia and Protect for the White Mage. When you're ready
then speak to the soldier on the right side of town and he'll take you to see
the king. Your goal is now clear and your destination is the Chaos Shrine to
the northwest of the village. Leave Cornelia and fight enemies until your
party reaches level four, this will be enough to take on the enemies at the
temple. Leave the town and make your way northwest, pass the cave in the side
of the mountain for now and enter the large stone structure just beyond it.

+-- (______) HAOS SHRINE -------------------------------------------- 1.02 --+
Enter the shrine and make a left at the start. At the lower left corner you
will find a small room with a single treasure chest inside. This treasure
chest contains a Leather Cap. Continue up from here to reach the upper left
corner where you will find two chests containing Potion and Tent. The
equivalent rooms on the opposite side are sealed and require the Mystic Key,
so return to the entrance and head straight up to find Garland's room.

|O| |
|S| The first boss of the game isn't meant to be difficult, you can beat him |
|S| at a level as low as two, personally I would recommend four but it |
| | really doesn't matter. Have your Black Mage cast Thunder while every |
| | other character in your party attacks the boss with physical hits. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
When the boss has been defeated and you are once again back at the castle,
speak to Princess Sarah to receive the Lute. Leave the castle and return to
town, you will likely need to stay at the inn. If anyone in your party is
dead you can revive them at the church. Leave the town and make your way
north to reach the bridge. As you start to cross the bridge a cutscene
triggers. Here you will reach a fork in the path where you come across some
mountains. Take the right path and follow the shoreline east until it leads
you south, here you will find the port town of Pravoka.

+-- (_/ RAVOKA ------------------------------------------------------ 1.03 --+
Welcome to the beautiful town of Pravoka, it is time once again to upgrade all
your weapons, armor and magic. The level two black and white magic
spells are now available, I would recommend Blizzard, Dark and Temper for
black, and Blindna, NulShock and Invis for white. When you've got your party
suited up then head over to the left side of town where you will come across
three pirates. These pirates mean business. Just for speaking to them, nine
of the pirates attack your party. Don't worry though, they only have 24 HP
apiece and will easily fall to your attacks. Upon defeating the nine pirates
the main pirate gives up and offers you his ship. Leave the town (after
staying at the inn of course) and a pirate ship is outside waiting for you.
Get on the ship and ride it west until you reach Cornelia, the first town.
From there continue to guide the boat west off the southern tip and you'll
eventually hit land. Follow this coast south, then east, and south staying
along the coast as much as possible until you reach a dock. Get off and make
your way south where you'll find a castle and the village of Elfheim.

+-- (_____) LFHEIM -------------------------------------------------- 1.04 --+
Ah Elfheim, village of the elves. The shops in this town are extremely good,
especially when it comes to magic. You will be able to purchase both level
three and level four white and black magic in this town. Of course these
spells are painfully expensive and if you wish to purchase them all right now
it's going to take likely hours of fighting enemies outside, but no matter. I
would recommend just picking up the choice spells, you can always come back
again. Cross the bridge above you at the town entrance and you'll see three
tombstones on the left, be sure to examine them all. After this you should
leave the town and go the the castle where you'll find the sleeping prince.
Your new destination is the Western Keep. Leave the town and make your way
west under the mountains and north from there, eventually you'll reach the
Western Keep. Speak to the king inside and once again be on your way. Your
destination is a large hole in the ground at the south tip of the continent.

+-- (_/ |/ |_ ARSH CAVE ------------------------------------------- 1.05 --+
When you enter the cave head straight up and follow the path until you reach
some stairs leading down. Head to the upper right corner and open the
treasure chest to obtain a Dagger. Beside it (on your left) you'll find a
room with 680 Gil inside. Directly below this room is another containing
Broadsword and 620 Gil. That's all you will find down here so climb back up
the stairs and return to the cave entrance. This time head down, then go down
at the fork. You'll find stairs inside this room leading down, take them.
Leave the room you appear in and run to the bottom, then right. You'll find a
room connecting you to another set of stairs. On B3F run right as far as you
possible can then go down, the room beside you has 295 Gil in it. Leave this
room and go left, past the first room to the next one. From here, enter the
room right below it to find two chests containing Cottage and Phoenix Down.
Leave this room and go into the left one to get a Copper Armlet. Now go two
rooms left and down once, there's 385 Gil inside the chest here. Now in the
room on the left there's another chest, but when you step onto the panel in
front of it a battle will trigger against four enemies. These enemies are
extremely difficult and they have powerful physical attacks. Fortunately they
have a weakness to Thunder so one cast of the Thundara spell should wipe all
of them out. The chest in this room contains the 'Crown.' Leave the cave
entirely and return to Elfheim where you can rest and heal your party. When
you're ready then return to the Western Keep with the Crown in hand.

When you arrive, speak to the king and then a boss battle begins.

|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Astos has one nasty attack up his sleeve and that's the Death spell |
|S| which can instantly eliminate one member of your party so be sure you |
| | have a good number of Phoenix Downs in your inventory. He also likes to |
| | cast the Fira spell so have your White Mage cast NulBlaze. Attack with |
| | physical attacks and the Fira, Thundara or Blizzara spells to win. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After the fight you are given the Crystal Eye. Take it and ride the ship back
to Cornelia. Go around the coast to find the bridge that was built and go
under it. There's a dock in this area which will allow you to go north and
reach Matoya's cave. Inside you'll find three chests containing Antidote,
Potion and Potion. When you speak to her she gives you the Jolt Tonic. Take
this Jolt Tonic and bring it back to Elfheim Castle. Use it to wake up the
sleeping prince in order to acquire the Mystic Key. With the Mystic Key in
hand there are a number of things you can do now and many items to get.
There are two treasure rooms in Cornelia Castle, the first has Saber, Mythril
Knife and Cottage inside the chests. In the second you'll find Tent, Iron
Armor and Nitro Powder. Next head over to the Chaos Shrine northwest of here
where you'll get Rune Blade, Werebuster and Gold Needle. Back in Elfheim
Castle there's a secret room at the upper right. Enter the castle and head
right immediately, you can go around the side without actually exiting in
order to reach it. There are four chests containing Myhtril Hammer, 800 Gil,
700 Gil, and Bronze Gloves. I believe there are also a few chests on the
lowest floor of the Marsh Cave you just finished. Regardless, after
everything is said and done, sail you ship to Cornelia once again. Follow the
shoreline west until you reach a dock. Get off and head southwest until you
come across a cave. Save your game and enter the cave beside you.

Directly above you at the beginning is a small room with two chests containign
575 Gil and 450 Gil. Make your way down and left, going left at the first and
second forks until you come across a room with eight chests. You will get
Wyrmkiller, Ether, Potion, Mythril Mail, 575 Gil, Cottage, Great Helm and
Tent. Speak to the dwarf just outside this room and give him the Nitro
Powder. Now that the canal has been blown open, get on your ship and sail
through it to the west. You'll find a dock almost immediately, just up a
little bit. Forget that whirlpool for now, you'll come back later.

The only thing you can really do in this town is upgrade your magic and
equipment, but even that is hard to do. You'll be lucky if you can come close
to affording that Knight's Armor, and you can't upgrade your magic until you
reach level nineteen. Some of the spells even require that you upgrade your
job classes, but we'll get to that soon. Once you're ready then leave the
town and head west then go south at the first chance you get to find the cave.

+-- (______) AVERN OF EARTH ----------------------------------------- 1.09 --+
Directly above the stairs where you start is a path leading to a chest
containing 1975 Gil. You'll have to fight an Earth Elemental in order to get
it, not too difficult, just exploit the weakness to fire. Return to the
entrance. If you would like to acquire copious amounts of money and
experience, take the left path. It leads around and starts downward. On this
downward path you will encounter Gigas enemies on EVERY panel, it's taxing on
your strength but the rewards for defeating them are well worth it. You could
easily get to level nineteen, high enough to equip those spells, and you'll
definitely have enough money to afford them. From the stairs at the entrance
head right and go down immediately. At the fork head right and check the room
for 795 Gil and an Antidote. Back at the fork go left and down to find two
chests. The one on the right is trapped with an Earth Elemental and has a
Potion, the other has 800 Gil in it. Once again head back to the entrance of
the dungeon and go right. Follow this path until you find some stairs. On
the next level, make your way through this mazy area to the upper right
corner. Inside the room are three chests containing Coral Sword, Tent and 300
Gil. Next head for the bottom-middle-ish area. There's a path leading down
to a room with 575 Gil, Leather Shield and 5000 Gil inside. You'll find the
stairs leading to the next floor in the lower right corner, but you'll have to
go back up and loop around a bit to reach them. On this floor head all the
way to the right and go into the room to find a chest containing Sleeping Bag.
Go up and left when you get the chance, you'll pass four rooms. The first has
3400 Gil inside, the second is empty, the third has 1020 Gil and the final
room has the boss. Be sure to heal up your party in preparation.

|O| |
|S| This is the easiest boss in the universe, I'm not even sure if he has |
|S| attacks since he's so weak and crappy that he'll be defeated before he |
| | has the chance to use them. Simply do this, physical attack, Diaga, |
| | Firaga, physical attack. The boss cannot withstand this one turn. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Your next destination is the Giant's Cave though you may want to return to the
town first. To reach the Giant's Cave it's the same idea as reaching the
Cavern of Earth, except when heading west from the town, take the second south
path instead of the first. Give the gaint the Star Ruby then head down to
find a room with four chests containing 620 Gil, 450 Gil, Mythril Helm and
Great Axe. Leave the cave via the stairs at the upper left. Follow the map
until you reach another cave, the man inside gives you the Earth Rod. Now
take the Earth Rod and bring it ALL THE WAY back to the room where you fought
the Vampire. There's a door on the right side leading up to a stone tablet,
examine it and some stairs appear. Head up at the fork and follow the path to
find Staff, 3400 Gil, 1455 Gil, 1520 Gil, and 5450 Gil. Return to the first
fork in this area and head left. Make your way to the far left wall and head
down to find a room with lots of battles and three chests containing Tent,
1250 Gil and Mythril Shield. From here head for the upper left corner to find
another set of stairs. On this floor the boss is located at the lower left
corner but in order to get there you'll have to go up and around the top.

|O| |
|S| This boss is only easy if you have an abundance of MP, if not it's |
|S| going to be very difficult. Spells like Diaga and Firaga really wipe |
| | the floor with this boss, but he is practically immune to physical |
| | attacks meaning that when you run out of MP, you basically run out of |
| | strategy. If you cast Haste on your best attacker it can usually |
| | bring up his damage enough to fight, so do that. Otherwise just |
| | rely on the Firaga and Diaga spells in order to win this battle. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Head around behind the crystal and step on the glowing panel to get out of
this cave. Your next destination is Crescent Lake. Get on your ship and sail
is southwest until you reach a dock on a stretch of land kind of sticking out
to the right of some mountains. Get off and walk west, then south when you
reach the trees, west further, then finally up and to the right.

+-- (______) RESCENT LAKE ------------------------------------------- 1.10 --+
The beautiful town of crescent lake awaits with its many weapons and powerful
magic spells. Your only goal here is to make your way to the upper right side
of town where you'll find a bridge leading to the twelve sages. Speak to all
of them to get the Canoe. Now when you exit town and head up you can use the
canoe on water. Ride it west, up somewhat and then further west. Eventually,
through this maze, you should reach an area of land where you will find a
volcano across one more small stretch of water. This is Mount Gulg.

You will notice some magma all over the place, yo have to cross it but don't
worry, the damage is pretty insignificant. Head left and go down the stairs
above you. On the next floor do straight up through the door until you see a
chest on your left, open it to receive Mythril Helm. Go down from here and
get the chest containing 1520 Gil. You'll see a door on the left side, take
it and head up. Make a left at the fork then go down to find a bajillion
chests. They containg 1760 Gil, Mythril Shield, Phoenix Down, Mythril Axe,
Mythril Helm, Mythril Gloves, 1520 Gil, 1455 Gil, Antidote, 1975 Gil, Tent,
Hi-Potion. Head straight up from here and you'll see two chests on the right,
open them to get 795 Gil and 750 Gil. Take the right-most path down from here
and it will lead you to the top of the room. From here head right and down to
find a chest containing 4150 Gil. Keep going up and down as you try to make
your way left, you'll come across a chest with a Great Sword in it. Now
return to the bottom of this room and head left to find stairs leading down.
The stairs on this floor can be found on the far right side. On this floor
head to the lower right corner to find some stairs leading up. When you reach
this floor head down, left at the fork, down at the fork, and left at the fork
to reach the stairs. Enter the room and open the two chests to get Gold
Needle and 2750 Gil. Make your way left and down, then enter the room to get
1760 Gil from the chest. Head left outside of this room and you'll come
across another with quite a few chests in it. Inside you'll find Antidote,
Ice Brand, 880 Gil, 7340 Gil and Flame Shield. Leave the room and head back
to the right then go down. Enter the first room to find 10 Gil and 155 Gil.
Up from there is another room containing 2000 Gil and Cottage. Return to the
last fork and go down, enter the room to get Staff and 1250 Gil. Descend the
stairs at the end of the path and go left on the next floor. You'll find a
Flame Mail in this room. Leave the room and go down, through the lava to
reach the lower left corner where you will encounter the boss.

|S| physical attacks can sometimes deal more than 300 damage to a character |
| | if they aren't well equipped. She also has a habit of casting the Fira |
| | spell so have your White Mage use NulBlaze to weaken it. After that |
| | cast Haste on your Warrior equipped with the Ice Brand, then have your |
| | Black Mage use Blizzara on every turn after that. Your White Mage |
| | should cast Protera to raise your party's defense then focus on healing. |

Step on the warp panel behind the boss to get out of the dungeon. Return to
town and heal up your party. Now get in your sailing ship and sail north
until you find another place to dock. You don't actually get off here
however, on the left is a river and you can change directly from the ship into
the canoe. Ride the canoe to the southwest until you find a stretch of land
that eventually leads to the cave. It's not the cave that is actually on the
river, like I said, you have to walk across some land first to reach it.

Head right at the start and follow the path around until you find some stairs
leading down. The stairs on this floor are located in the lower left corner.
After that the stairs are right beside you. Now make your way around to the
bottom where you'll find a large room with cracks in the floor. Avoid the
cracks and open the chests to get Flame Sword and Clothes then fall down one
of the cracks. Head left and get the Ice Armor and Mythril Gloves. Head
straight down without changing directions and you'll find a room with six
treasure chests. Here you'll find 12,350 Gil, 180 Gil, 5454 Gil, 5000 Gil,
7900 Gil, 9900 Gil. Next head for the lower right corner where you'll find
some stairs leading up. Open the chest to get an Ether, then leave the room
and head down to the room below. Inside this chest is 10,000 Gil. Enter the
room on the right to find three chests with Sleeping Bag, 9500 Gil and Ice
Shield. Now drop down the crack and step in front of the stone. You'll fight
the Evil Eye, a boss which will probably go down in a single hit. Afterward
grab the Levistone then drop down the cracks. Return to the room which had
the three chests in it but don't go inside, instead head past it to the right
and go up to find some stairs. This will lead you outside. Get back to the
sailing ship and return to Crescent Lake. From the town go up and get in your
canoe. Ride left until the river goes down, then follow it. At the bottom
you'll find a small patch of desert, get off on the land beside the river and
enter the desert to obtain the airship. Now with the airship in your
possession you can fly all around the world. Locate the enormous desert with
a large tower right in the middle. At the northeast corner of this continent
you'll find the town of Gaia. At the southwest corner is a castle, however
you cannot land near it. Put your ship down east of the castle on the other
side of the small desert patch and walk, you'll have to canoe across.

Speak to the guy and then make your way to the upper left room. Stand on the
throne and you'll be warped to the next floor. Step on the first warp portal,
then the next one. Now you'll have a choice of two. Take the lower one, then
the only one. Now take the lower one and head down to the only one here.
Take the one on the right, then head over to the right side and get the chest
in the room containing Gauntlets. Leave the room and take the path below you,
on the left. Take the transporter directly below you and climb the stairs.
Above you in the chest you'll find Healing Staff, then over to the left are
three chests containing Steel Gloves, Ice Brand and Ruby Armlet. At the
bottom is 7340 Gil, 1455 Gil and Cottage. Inside the chest on the right you
will Rat's Tail. Before you can leave you will have to fight Dragon Zombie, a
simple cast of the Firaga spell will quickly end the battle. South of the
castle is a hole in an island, and beside that five more holes. Enter the
first hole and get the three chests for 2750 Gil, 1455 Gil and 2000 Gil.
Check each of the holes to eventually find the enormous dragon Bahamut. The
Rat's Tail is proof of your courage and with that he upgrades the class level
of each member in your party. Now you can purchase those top notch magic
spells. Find the enormous desert once again and head to the northeast corner
of the continent. There surrounded by mountains is the town of Gaia.

Grab whatever upgrades to your magic and equipment you need here, but keep
your money above 40,000 Gil. When you're done shopping leave the town and
head down to that tower in the middle of the desert. Head east across the
ocean to reach another somewhat smaller desert. Land your airship and look at
the top of this desert for a kind fo tiny, oval shaped... mini desert circle.
The Caravan is hidden in the centre of this. Purchase the bottle for 40,000
Gil and return to Gaia. When you enter the Faerie will pop out of the bottle
and disappear. Head to the upper left corner of town, up past the item shop,
right past the church and around to find the Faerie. When you speak to her
she gives you the Oxyale. Now leave the town and get into your airship. Fly
west until you hit a waterfall and go south from there to find a town in the
middle of a forested area. It's a bit of a walk, you'll have to drop your
ship down further south and then walk up to reach the town of Onrac.

Canoe up it and go into the Waterfall Cave. This place is kind of like a maze
but there's only one floor, your destination is the lower left corner where
you'll find a room with a robot inside. Speak to it to get the Warp Cube.
Afterward open all the chests and you'll receive Wizard's Staff, Ribbon,
13,450 Gil, 6400 Gil, 5000 Gil and Defender. Now return to the town of Onrac.

room. Continue right and enter the room at the bottom for 12,350 Gil. Climb
the stairs and go up to find a room with three chests, 1760 Gil, 9000 Gil and
Diamond Armlet. Leave this room and go left until you hit the wall, then up
until the path stops. Go right, past one room and into the second where
you'll find a chest containing 2750 Gil. Go down one room and right one to
find another chest with 4150 Gil. To the right you'll find another 5000 Gil.
Head straight down as far as you can, the room on the right has a Diamond
Shield while the room on the left has an Antidote. Head as far up as you can
and check the room on the left for 10,000 Gil and 10 Gil. Make your way to
the upper left corner and head down one room to find three chests with Diamond
Gloves, Diamond Helm and Rosetta Stone. Now it's time to return once again to
the entrance of the shrine. This time instead of taking the stairs at the
upper right corner, take the stairs at the upper left corner. Follow the path
up to find another set of stairs, then take the stairs beside you on the next
floor. Go up the stairs at the bottom right then enter the door and get 110
Gil from the chest and 450 Gil from the one below it. Exit through the door
at the bottom and descend the stairs. In this area go left and down, then
head through the door and open the chests containing 7690 Gil and 8135 Gil.
In the room to the left of this one you'll find Giant's Gloves, 5450 Gil and
385 Gil. Go up from this room to get Light Axe. To the right of that room
you'll find 2750 Gil, 7340 Gil, 9900 Gil and Ribbon. From this room go up and
then make a left at the fork to find the stairs. Follow the thin path left of
the stairs on the next floor, then head up at the fork past the door, left at
the first chance you get, then down. This will bring you to a large room.
There's a door on the left side leading out to a path that goes up to another
room. In this room is the orb and the boss, heal up and fight.

|O| |
|S| You shouldn't find this boss battle too difficult, the Kraken has an |
|S| extreme weakness to thunder magic so the Thundaga spell should deall |
| | well over 400 damage here. With my Knight with Haste attacking, the |
| | Black Wizard using Thundaga, the White Wizard using holy, and the |
| | useless Monk/Master with healing items, the battle was over quick. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Now it's time to return to the town of Melmond. In the upper area near the
gravestones there is a scholar walking around. Show him the Rosetta Stone you
got and he will teach you how to speak Lufenian. Return to Gaia in your
airship and head south, and a tiny bit east. You'll find a large village
surrounded by forest, so much forest that you will have to put down your
airship far to the north, in a little spot beside the large desert and walk
from there. It's quite a long trip before you reach the town of Lufenia.

What you want to do first is head to the upper right side, you'll notice an
area where you can go through an opening in the wall and head right to reach
the two secret magic shops. They only sell one spell each, but they are the
game's ultimate magic spells, Full Life and Flare. After that head down the
right side of the town area and speak to the guy standing still in the corner
to get the Chime. Now your next destination is the tower in the middle of the
large desert, drop your airship down southeast of it and walk up to it.

Enter the first door inside and run to the middle where you'll find quite a
few chests containing 800 Gil, Healing Helm, 3400 Gil, 18,010 Gil, 2750 Gil,
Aegis Shield, and Tent. Take the lower left door out of this room and ascend
the stairs. Follow the path until you come to a fork then take the lower
path. When you get around to the left side, go right, down, right, down etc
until you reach a room. In this room are quite a few chests which contain
Thor's Hammer, 12,350 Gil, 7900 Gil, 13,000 Gil, 8135 Gil, Sun Blade, 7600
Gil, 10,000 Gil, Cottage, and Dragon Mail. Leave through the lower right door
and head up to reach the stairs to the next floor. Head down the path and
enter the room to find a warp portal to the flying fortress.

Head all the way down to the bottom and open the chest to get Razer. Return
to the room you came from and go left to another room with four chests
containing 7900 Gil, Potion, 4150 Gil and 9900 Gil. Over on the right side
you'll find 180 Gil, Healing Helm, Protect Ring, 6720 Gil, 5000 Gil. After
this head up to the top and step on the warp portal. Go down until the path
opens up and check the upper right room for Diamond Gloves. The upper left
room has a Cottage and Mythril Gloves. Return to the centre and go left to
find a room with 880 Gil and 13,000 Gil. The room on the right has a Ribbon
and a Diamond Shield. Next check the lower right room to get Black Robe and
White Robe. The lower left room contains the fabled Adamantite so you'll want
to get that for sure. Now take the bottom middle path to warp to the next
floor. Examine the object in the middle then take the lower right path to
reach a room with six chests in it. Get 8135 Gil, Protect Cloak, 9500 Gil,
Clothes, 6400 Gil and Gold Needle. Now return to the warp portal and head
stairght up. This room contains Potion, 5450 Gil, Protect Ring and 9000 Gil.
In the left room you will find 4150 Gil, Gold Needle, 3400 Gil and Sasuke's
Blade. Below this room is the warp portal to the next floor. This floor
loops forever, all you have to do is go down two intersections, then head
right until you find the next warp. Before moving anywhere, save your game.
If you're in the mood to fight an optional boss then wander along this bridge
for awhile and eventually you will encounter the Death Machine. Whether or
not you choose to fight this boss you're going to have to fight the Tiamat

|O| |
|S| The massive dragon isn't so massive when it comes to power. His attacks |
|S| are weak and his only powerful spell is lightning based which means you |
| | can cast NulShock to reduce the damage. Since the boss is almost immune |
| | to physical attacks you should just have your Black Mage cast Flare, |
| | your White Mage cast Holy, and with the other two characters I just |
| | had them using the Healing Helm items every turn, it worked. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
At this point there are a couple of things you can do, the first and most
important is to head to the draves cave (Mount Duergar) where you blew up the
path in the water (west of Cornelia.) Give the Adamantite to the dwarf in the
top room to get Excalibur, the most powerful sword in the universe. Now at
this point you can also visit the option dungeon caves, there are a total of
four of them. Each of them are randomly geberated with random items, but the
bosses do not change. Once you enter you cannot leave until the bosses are
defeated. The locations of the four optional caves are as follows:
The Earthgrift Shrine is located northwest of Cornelia, it's the first cave
you pass on the way to the Chaos Shrine. The Hellfire Chasm is found in one
of those many holes you entered when looking for Bahamut to do the job class
upgrade. The Lifespring Grotto is that whirlpool located in the water beside
the dwarf cave, you can't miss it. Finally, the Whisperwind Cave can be
foundby taking your canoe to the Ice Cavern and going around to the right
side, you'll find a cave door directly touching the water there.
Feel free to explore those as you see fit, when you're ready to proceed then
it's time to head for the final dungeon. The final dungeon is found by
returning to the Chaos Shrine, northwest of Cornelia. Examine the orb there.

After being teleported, head to the lower right corner and climb the stairs.
The stairs on the next floor are located directly to the right. Run all the
way down to the bottom and then over to the right. Enter the room in the
middle, open the two chests to get Elixir and Dry Ether, then examine the
plate and a ladder appears. Climb down the head left and up to the ladder
leading down to the first floor. Continue left to the upper left corner and
descend to B1. Run up the hall to a fork and go right. Ignore the first fork
and head down the second. When you approach the stairs a battle begins.

| | LICH | HP: 2800 | GIL: 1 | EXP: 2000 | N/A |

|O| |
|S| This guy is nothing like the first Lich, he's equipped with all sorts of |
|S| powerful magic spells. Fortunately however his defense against physical |
| | attacks is not too high so cast Haste on your Warrior before letting |
| | loose with Flare, Firaga, Diaja and Holy magic. All are effective. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Descend the stairs and go left until you hit a pillar. then immediately up
until you hit a door. In this room go up a bit, then right, and down through
an equivalent door. Down and bit and left, you'll find a set of stairs going
down. Before descending, head down from the stairs and go through the door on
the right. The chest contains Protect Cloak while the chest on the very far
right has a Megalixir inside. Leave this room and head left into the other
door. Grab the Protect Ring and then down and left. Follow the path to a
fork and head right. Through the door you'll find a Sasuke's Blade. Now
return back to the staircase you passed earlier and prepare for a fight.
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | MARILITH | HP: 3200 | GIL: 3000 | EXP: 2000 | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Like the Lich, you'll be facing a much more difficult version of this |
|S| boss. Watch out for the Firaga spell, be sure to use NulBlaze on your |
| | first turn to reduce the damage you take and have Healaga ready. |
| | Believe it or not, Marilith is not weak at all against Blizzaga, in fact |
| | it totally sucks. Your spell of choice here is Flare and a Warrior |
| | equipped with the Excalibur and with Haste casted will deal most of all. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Basically your only goal on this floor is to get to the lower right corner.
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | KRAKEN | HP: 3600 | GIL: 1 | EXP: 2000 | Eye Drops |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Begin the battle by having your White Wizard cast the NulShock spell and |
|S| and then as usual, use Haste on your Warrior. The Black Wizard should |
| | cast Flare while the White Wizard heals, the Warrior attacks and whoever |
| | else is there does whatever the hell they want until the fight ends. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Make your way to the lower right corner where you will find the Masamune, a
weapon to finally make that damn Monk useful. Head back to the stairs you
took to get down here and go directly right to encounter the boss.
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | TIAMAT | HP: 5500 | GIL: 1 | EXP: 2000 | Rune Staff |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| The most difficult of the newer bosses shouldn't be too much of a |
|S| problem. His defense against physical attacks is strong, but the |
| | Excalibur and even moreso, the Masamune should bring him down quickly |
| | if both characters have Haste on them. Cast Protera on your party since |
| | most of the boss' attacks are physical and then... kill it. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Head down the stairs and run down to the large room at the bottom. Heal up.
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | CHAOS | HP: 20,000 | GIL: N/A | EXP: N/A | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| To be honest, many final bosses in games are disappointing due to a |
|S| lack of difficulty. Chaos is not one of them, he is exponentially |
| | harder than all other bosses in the game. You will want to be about |
| | level 50 before taking him on. Here's how the battle should go. Your |
| | White Wizard will use the first three turns to cast NulBlaze, NulShock, |
| | and NulIce. Unless you need to heal of course. Chaos uses magic |
| | spells of many elements. Your Black Wizard should cast Haste on your |
| | Warrior (equipped with Excalibur) and Master (equipped with Masamune) |
| | or whatever other combination you have. On the next turns he should |
| | cast Temper on them and they themselves should use the Giant's Glove |
| | item which casts Saber on them. With this, their critical hits should |
| | deal 1000-1500 damage. That's a good start. Put your White Wizard on |
| | Full Time Healaga and the Black Wizard should use either Flare or items |
| | depending on your situation. Keep this up and Chaos will fall. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Congratulations on completing the game. All that is left is the ending.

+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | GARLAND | HP: 212 | GIL: 250 | EXP: 130 | Longsword |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| The first boss of the game isn't meant to be difficult, you can beat him |
|S| at a level as low as two, personally I would recommend four but it |
| | really doesn't matter. Have your Black Mage cast Thunder while every |
| | other character in your party attacks the boss with physical hits. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | ASTOS | HP: 420 | GIL: 2000 | EXP: 2250 | Mythril Sword |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Astos has one nasty attack up his sleeve and that's the Death spell |
|S| which can instantly eliminate one member of your party so be sure you |
| | have a good number of Phoenix Downs in your inventory. He also likes to |
| | cast the Fira spell so have your White Mage cast NulBlaze. Attack with |
| | physical attacks and the Fira, Thundara or Blizzara spells to win. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | VAMPIRE | HP: 280 | GIL: 2000 | EXP: 1200 | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| This is the easiest boss in the universe, I'm not even sure if he has |
|S| attacks since he's so weak and crappy that he'll be defeated before he |
| | has the chance to use them. Simply do this, physical attack, Diaga, |
| | Firaga, physical attack. The boss cannot withstand this one turn. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | LICH | HP: 1200 | GIL: 3000 | EXP: 2200 | Dry Ether |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| This boss is only easy if you have an abundance of MP, if not it's |
|S| going to be very difficult. Spells like Diaga and Firaga really wipe |
| | the floor with this boss, but he is practically immune to physical |
| | attacks meaning that when you run out of MP, you basically run out of |
| | strategy. If you cast Haste on your best attacker it can usually |
| | bring up his damage enough to fight, so do that. Otherwise just |
| | rely on the Firaga and Diaga spells in order to win this battle. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | MARILITH | HP: 1440 | GIL: 3000 | EXP: 2475 | Golden Apple |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Watch out for her physical attacks, that's where she'll get you. Her |
|S| physical attacks can sometimes deal more than 300 damage to a character |
| | if they aren't well equipped. She also has a habit of casting the Fira |
| | spell so have your White Mage use NulBlaze to weaken it. After that |
| | cast Haste on your Warrior equipped with the Ice Brand, then have your |
| | Black Mage use Blizzara on every turn after that. Your White Mage |
| | should cast Protera to raise your party's defense then focus on healing. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | KRAKEN | HP: 1800 | GIL: 5000 | EXP: 4245 | Kikuichimonji |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| You shouldn't find this boss battle too difficult, the Kraken has an |
|S| extreme weakness to thunder magic so the Thundaga spell should deall |
| | well over 400 damage here. With my Knight with Haste attacking, the |
| | Black Wizard using Thundaga, the White Wizard using holy, and the |
| | useless Monk/Master with healing items, the battle was over quick. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | TIAMAT | HP: 2400 | GIL: 6000 | EXP: 5496 | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| The massive dragon isn't so massive when it comes to power. His attacks |
|S| are weak and his only powerful spell is lightning based which means you |
| | can cast NulShock to reduce the damage. Since the boss is almost immune |
| | to physical attacks you should just have your Black Mage cast Flare, |
| | your White Mage cast Holy, and with the other two characters I just |
| | had them using the Healing Helm items every turn, it worked. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | LICH | HP: 2800 | GIL: 1 | EXP: 2000 | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| This guy is nothing like the first Lich, he's equipped with all sorts of |
|S| powerful magic spells. Fortunately however his defense against physical |
| | attacks is not too high so cast Haste on your Warrior before letting |
| | loose with Flare, Firaga, Diaja and Holy magic. All are effective. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | MARILITH | HP: 3200 | GIL: 3000 | EXP: 2000 | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Like the Lich, you'll be facing a much more difficult version of this |
|S| boss. Watch out for the Firaga spell, be sure to use NulBlaze on your |
| | first turn to reduce the damage you take and have Healaga ready. |
| | Believe it or not, Marilith is not weak at all against Blizzaga, in fact |
| | it totally sucks. Your spell of choice here is Flare and a Warrior |
| | equipped with the Excalibur and with Haste casted will deal most of all. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | KRAKEN | HP: 3600 | GIL: 1 | EXP: 2000 | Eye Drops |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| Begin the battle by having your White Wizard cast the NulShock spell and |
|S| and then as usual, use Haste on your Warrior. The Black Wizard should |
| | cast Flare while the White Wizard heals, the Warrior attacks and whoever |
| | else is there does whatever the hell they want until the fight ends. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | TIAMAT | HP: 5500 | GIL: 1 | EXP: 2000 | Rune Staff |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| The most difficult of the newer bosses shouldn't be too much of a |
|S| problem. His defense against physical attacks is strong, but the |
| | Excalibur and even moreso, the Masamune should bring him down quickly |
| | if both characters have Haste on them. Cast Protera on your party since |
| | most of the boss' attacks are physical and then... kill it. |
| | |
+-+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+-+--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
| | CHAOS | HP: 20,000 | GIL: N/A | EXP: N/A | N/A |
|B|--------------------+------------+-----------+-----------+----------------+
|O| |
|S| To be honest, many final bosses in games are disappointing due to a |
|S| lack of difficulty. Chaos is not one of them, he is exponentially |
| | harder than all other bosses in the game. You will want to be about |
| | level 50 before taking him on. Here's how the battle should go. Your |
| | White Wizard will use the first three turns to cast NulBlaze, NulShock, |
| | and NulIce. Unless you need to heal of course. Chaos uses magic |
| | spells of many elements. Your Black Wizard should cast Haste on your |
| | Warrior (equipped with Excalibur) and Master (equipped with Masamune) |
| | or whatever other combination you have. On the next turns he should |
| | cast Temper on them and they themselves should use the Giant's Glove |
| | item which casts Saber on them. With this, their critical hits should |
| | deal 1000-1500 damage. That's a good start. Put your White Wizard on |
| | Full Time Healaga and the Black Wizard should use either Flare or items |
| | depending on your situation. Keep this up and Chaos will fall. |

This review contains traces of slight spoilers and adult language. Be advised.
How the system works: Gameplay looks at generally how the game plays and how
enjoyable it would be to someone actually sitting down and playing the game.
Graphics delve deep into impressive (or unimpressive) visuals you might might
here. Music & Sound will obviously look at how the game sounds in terms of
both effects and musical score. Control will rate how easy it is to play the
game in terms of control. Awesome Factor serves for the most part as the
tilt, how will Awesome NES Man rate the fun factor of this game? Read on!
GAME............[08/10] Final Fantasy is the game which starting it all,
the game which brought Squaresoft back from the brink
of failure and changed the very genre of RPGs.
So now SquareEnix has revamped it and updated the game
for the GBA. It retains all the classic gameplay and
fun from the original, which to be honest, isn't
really all that much. Final Fantasy is a game so
important for what it did, but it's a pretty bland
and boring game. Decent is a good word for it. You
play as the four warrios of light who appear for
some reason to kill some bad guy who is most likely
evil. Along the way you will be sidetracked to do
a bunch of pointless shit and before you know it
the game is over. That is the basic premise.
GRAPHICS........[09/10] The graphics have taken the update well and look
quite good, the models are nice looking for both
characters and enemies. No complaints.
MUSIC & SOUND...[09/10] All the original music has been remixed, which may or
may not be considered a good thing, but in this
game's case, it worked out for the better.
CONTROL.........[09/10] What's to complain about, move up, down, left, right
blah blah blah. In battle it may have been nice to
have an auto-battle feature rather than constantly
tapping the button in easy fights but... whatever.
AWESOME FACTOR..[06/10] This game, I must say, is not awesome. It's good,
entertaining, classic, neat, interesting, and
intruiging... but not awesome. The characters are
about as interesting as a cinder block, with half the
personality. The only reason this game gets a score
of six and not negative three is because in the second
town you have to beat the fucking shit out of a bunch
of badass pirates and take their sailing ship. You
don't so much take it as the pirate captain wusses
out and gives it to you (minus points here) but you
still have to battle pirates. Hardcore.
FINAL SCORE...[082/100] I take shits more interesting than this game's plot.
